Must-try
A contemporary khumcha feast at Legends of India boasts paranthas and tikkis. There are seven khumchas or counters in the restaurant. While the die-hard chaat addicts may insist there’s nothing to beat a halwai from Chandni Chowk to make that perfect paapri, Legends of India has done a fine job with their hot ’n’ sweet golgappas (Rs 85). As you pore over the menu, do sample Dhagey ke Kebab (Rs 375) or “dental floss kebabs”, as Kalra wittily calls them, and the tender morsels bring in delicate flavours.

The mildly spicy Keema Tehri (Rs 375) is a winsome entrée and the Anglo-Indian recipe of Railway Mutton Curry (Rs 475) with deep-fried potatoes is spicy but just right with spongy Bakarkhani (Rs 65). For dessert, try seb ki kheer (Rs 95) that is refreshing.

Give a miss
The appetisers, with Chollia aur Khumbwali Lahori Seekh (Rs 285) and Tandoori Aloo Paswan (Rs 275), were average, and the seekhs were bland and dry.
